FARMS AND FOLKS By J. M. ELEAZER Clemson Extension Information Specialist / •* • V • . • , >' a ’ ' V‘-' •’ •• V THE NEWBERRY SUN , -■ ^ ' mm j f — THURSDAY, JANUARY 6; 1954 — SHORT STORY I saw this last summer: A fine crop. A flash of lightning. A clap of thunder. A gust of wind. A dash of hail. And, alas, no crop! Rough months then lay ahead, where promise had beckoned a few minutes before. SWEET POTATOES Our Dr. Rochester has cbmpiled some interesting facts about the sweet potato. This crop has been slipping now for some years. Not only here, but all over the country. Its high la bor requirement or something is causing this. In the whole country, last year the sweet potato crop was 43 per cent below the previoqs 10-year average. And here in South Caro lina we were 70 percent below our receut 10-year average. Of course, unremitting drought accounts for a lot of this. But not all. Por the sugar spud has been going down for some time. And it’s a pity too. For few other crops make so much direct nutritious human food per acre. In time of stress, we might need this great food crop. You will recall that it, and it almost alone, sustained the daring swamp fighters of Marion, as they harrassed the British so during the Revolution. The importation of improved seed stock from Louisiana, better production methods worked out at Clemson’s Blackville Station, and the clear-cut production and mar ketings demonstrations of fine sweet potatoes by the 4-H club boys have all combined to put a superior product on the market. Maybe on this basis, the sugar spud can come back. PLANTING SEED SCARCE Our certified sedd man, Bob Garrison, tells me some planting seeds are bound to be scarce this year. - ? This applies specially to adapted seed of hybrid corns. And cotton too. Drought caused a lot of immaturity in cotton seed. Better look to their germination first. And our fast-growing acreage of shatter-resistant soybeans is bound to feel the pinch of scarce and sorry seed. Much of the adteage the past year wasn’t worth gather ing. And seed from much that was harvested are of very poor qual ity, County Agent Gain, in the big soybean county of Calhoun was telling me. So here is another place we will need to check the germination carefully. Very little lespedeza seed was made. After about 4 short crofcs in succession, we sure need a good one in 1955. And we can’t have it with poor seed, or unadapted va rieties. Before getting any good quaity seed from a distance, you will do well to find out how they do here. Your county agent -can help you with that. Ppr, you know, seed have to 'be acclimated to serve you best. It will be folly to send off and get high priced, high quality seeds that don’t suit here. Get the best of the adapted sorts you can find. That’'' the best’ we can do. NO ICED TEA Last fall I was in Canada for a week. I called for iced tea, as us ual, with my meals. They didn't have it at a single place. One or two offered, a bit reluctantly, to fix it for me. But the others just looked at me sort of funny, pitty- ing like. And even if I took coffee, it was hard to get ’em to bring it with my meal. That’s the only way I like it. Small differences, we all have ’em. Social By LYN CONNELLY O riginators of the tune. “Happy Wanderer,” The Ob- ernkirchen Children’s Choir, did a bit of wandering themselves late ly. with a six-week tour of the States, covering 24 cities . . ..

Currently he is in England making plans for his appearance in a new movie, “Gen tlemen Marry Brunettes” with Jane Bussell . . . Miss Russell also produces the film with her husband. Bob Waterfield . . . There have also been some tentative plans for a 25-week television se ries from Rome. PLATTER CHATTER CAPITOL—Arthur Murray Mod ern waltzes has been recorded by Les Baxter on one ef this com pany’s magnificent hi-fi record albums . . .

In the same setnp (hi-fi) Bay Anthony con tributes a fine bit of art on Arthur Murray fox trots . . . Here we have “Love Walked In,” “You’re the Cream in My Coffee,” “Poor Butterfly,” “Heart of My Heart” and other excellent selections. Also on Capitol. Body Vallee does the songs always associated with him—“Let’s Do It,” “Vaga bond Lover,” “Maine Stein Song,” “Vieni, Vieni,” “Betty Co-Ed,” and, of course, “My Time Is Your Time” . . . This is the recording of an era and a wonderful disc to add to alreadv good collections By MISS MARTHA PRESSLY (Manager, Greenwood 8. S. Office) In the first of this series of ar ticles, I mentioned the fact that one of the prime objectives of so cial security was to bring more members of the nation’s labor force under its insurance pro gram. When President Roosevelt signed the original Social Security Act in 1935, he called it *’a corner stone in a structure which is be ing built, but which is by no means complete.” And since the social security began in It37, five amendments have built upon this original “cornerstone” a building which will protect many more peo ple from tiie storms* of financial worries in the later years. This same strong building will protect whole families from economic dis tress if their breadwinner dies. With the 1954 Amendments to the Social Security Act, President Eisenhower and Congress have made the edifice of social secur- fty protection even larger to in clude over ten million more work ing people. About seven million employed and self-employed men and women are coming into the program on January 1, 1955 on a compulsory basis and about three and a quarter million more work ing people are eligible oh a volun tary basis or at the option of their employers. Over three and a half million farm operators are covered by so cial securjty for the first time af ter 1954. This is the largest single group to be brought under the program. The new amendment also provides an easy way for the new ly Covered farm operators to re port their eahiings for social se curity purposes if these earnings are low. I’ll explain this special method of income reporting in a later article. A second large group is over two million more farm em ployees. The new amendment cov ers all farm employees who earn $100 or more 4n cash from the same farm employer in h year, and abolishes the regularity of work provision of the old law. Eligible to earn their future pro tection for the first time, are about three and a half million State and local government em ployees. These, are workers who are already under a State or local retirement system, but they may now be brought under the social security program without losing the protection of their other re tirement plan if their State makes an agreement with the Federal government. Also, 150 thousand Federal government employees will be under the program for the mmm m gpHI Wm wm ms. Hfi * w m „ A MYSTERY FARM NO. 14 appealing in last week’s issue of the Sun was the farm of C.

About 100 thousand professional people who work for themselves may begin to earn their social se curity credits on January 1, 1955. This change in the law means that now almost all self-employed peo ple are earning social security. The professional group included by the 1954 amendment comprises self-employed engineers, account ants, architects, and funeral direc tors. A self-employed person earns credit with social security whe(i his net income during the year is $400 or more. « j, The rule that domestic workers must work a certain number of days in a calendar quarter for the same employer has been abolished, and because of tbis, about 200 thousand additional private house hold employees will be earning so cial security credit beginning Jan uary 1, 1955. Home industrial workers are now covered whether or not they are licensed by their state. These are the people who work in their own homes for an industrial employer. The 1954 Amendment extends protection to over 250 thousand ministers, Christian Science prac titioners, and members of religious orders who have not taken a vow of poverty. After .1954 all employ ed and self-employed ministers may bring themselves under the old-age and survivors insurance program as self-employed people. They may come in on a voluntary basis, and they must file certifi cates indicating their desire to be gin earning social security. The new law makes about 100 thousand American citizens who are employed abroad by foreign subsidiaries of American corpora tions eligible for coverage at the option of the parent Ami firm. And Americans who worl ships or aircraft of foreign regi; for American employers are cov ered for the first tin*n, About 40 thousand more fishermen who are employed workers will begin earn ing their future Insurance. They will be covered by social regardless of the tonnage vi fishing vessel or the nature catch. If this article has ansi fundamental question of' covered by the near it has probably raised questions.
